you take the rotor off ,then the dust shield, then its a couple screws and the ignitor comes out. No need to remove the dizzy

oh first remove the rotor, try by wiggling it out side to side and then it'll come out. Then remove the cover and then you should see the ignitor.

you have to remove all the wire leads going into the ignitor first.

Then theres gonna be 2 phillips heads screws underneath that are holding it on. Remove those and it'll slide right out.

But be careful, they might be really TOUGH to get out, so dont strip them. If worse comes to worse, make a razor mark over the distributor and the engine block so your timing isn't out of whack if you have to remove the distributor, then you should be able to get a better view of the two phillips head screws, w/ more leverage.

i removed the rotor and the dust plate and all i can see is one screw on the right side of the ignitor and i cant even get at that to unscrew it. I cant even see the other screw at all

yeah that other screw is underneath the wires to the left of the screw your seeing right now. It actually holds that bracket on that holds the wires in place. It's a really cramped area for space to get to.

those screws are a bitch to take off. be careful you dont f-up the screw head.

[rocesride]
